Indeed, GnW's hitboxes happen to be very large and tend to have multiple hits or a long lasting hitbox, and most of them are disjointed. Therfore, usually offensive tactics don't work as well.
With Sheik, it's most common to abuse your needles(since GnW has no reliable way of avoiding them or matching them another projectile) and approaching his aerials with a dash cancelled sheild, punishing the landing lag with your quick tilt combos.
Counter picking Lylat cruise is good, because GnW is easily caught under the tilting ledges(just keep away from platforms, you can try to KO through them though). FD works well too because you have more space for needles and there are no platforms for GnW to put pressure on.
